It's a little lawyer-y, to be sure. But I think it gives both the village and the dead enough flexibility while allowing for clear communication.

Well I just wanted to avoid all sorts of weird ways of abusing the system.

Alright. Things I thought of while reading that might be relevant:

- I DO think that the EW is likely not one of the first people who offered up insight on the game, for this reason; the EW is the only evil right now that it's incredibly bad for the wolf team to lose. And it's useless to say that they aren't "lost" if they're lynched - they're outed, and that's just as bad.

- I DO think the EW is likely to wait a bit to see which way the village wind is blowing before they offer up opinions, for the reason stated above.

- I DO NOT have the current IRL capacity to look back and see who matches what I posited in the first two points. I will get to it as I can, should I be alive to do so.

- I DO think that Boro is a goober and that Nerwen is gorgeous.

That is all for now.

Awe, thanks . That means a lot coming from you.

++Boro

I still think it makes more sense to take a shot at lynching a baddie than not to take it.

Boro seems the most fishy (see: list) so he gets my vote.

I also think innocent Boro would be a reliable dead thread presence and a guilty Boro an entertaining one.~Lommy
You know what...I'm not even flustered by that. Usually, I'm fighting tooth and nail for revenge, but that's well reasoned. You've halfway convinced me that I should vote for myself.

Edit, crossed with Lottie. Fixing quote tags

It's really worrying me how much I'm finding myself agreeing with Lottie. If you're the Evil Wizard...

I have to vote too - this deadline time and my bedtime are not a good combo.
I don't have strong suspicions yet but a non-lynch/non-vote feels like a cop-out.
I'm going to with
++Nerwen
Because she's been a bit enigmatic toDay, because if she's bad she's scary and if she's good she'll be an asset to the dead thread.

Btw is that an actual vote? You should highlight it ( writing [highlight ][ /highlight] without the spaces there)

No, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it too.

I honestly haven't really factored in the Dead Thread, though it now seems to be a large part of the discussion. I have no recollection of ever playing a WW game with a Dead Thread before, so I'm sure how it all works. As complicated as it seems, I think communication of some sort is a good idea.
